Delphi helps Peugeot to victory
in ‘ultimate durability test’
Earlier this year, Delphi technology helped power
two Peugeot RCZs to an impressive first and third
in-class standing in a gruelling 24-hour endurance
race at the Nurburgring in Germany. The vehicles
were equipped with Delphi diesel fuel injection
systems and powertrain cooling technology,
which unlike many of the 197 other vehicles,
had not been highly modified for racing.
Speed and endurance //
come as s tandard
Peugeot had recently launched the RCZ 2.0 litre HDi
coupé to mark its 200th anniversary. For the 2010
race, the company took the decision to race models
that were largely unmodified from their road-going
equivalents – a powerful way of demonstrating the
reserves of performance and durability inherent in
their standard production vehicles.
Even with this extra boost, Peugeot used production
Delphi charge air coolers, as supplied to road cars,
as they met the performance targets required for
endurance racing. // Full article on page 20 TT
The two RCZs ran in the D1T category for diesel cars
between 1.7 litres and 2.0 litres. The key change to
the standard engine was an increase in turbo boost
pressure, lifting the torque from 340Nm to 400Nm
and the power from 120kW to 150kW.

dashboard of a modern vehicle to see that an
increasing number of automotive management
systems are being controlled by electronics.
In 2005, only 20% of systems in new cars were
controlled by electronics… today this figure is
more than 40% and rising. The result, engine
management systems represent more than 60%
of diagnostic fault codes. These advances represent
a new challenge for garages. It is essential that
any business invests in the right tools and parts to
service these increasingly sophisticated vehicles.

The introduction of Common Rail has revolutionised
the acceptability of diesel in passenger cars,
offering comparable power and performance to
many petrol alternatives, and fuelling extraordinary
growth in diesel cars worldwide. Operating at
extreme pressures of up to 2000 bar, the Common
Rail fuel injection system delivers precision control
of the combustion process. The injector is key
to this. Each injector is allocated an individual
characterisation code relating to its specific flow
rates, response times and performance at different
pressures. This must be programmed into the ECU
whenever a replacement injector is fitted to the
vehicle. The ECU will then manage the delivery
of each injector to ensure that the engine runs at
optimum efficiency. These advances mean that only
garages equipped with the right tools, skills and
knowledge will be able to take advantage of the
rapidly growing diesel servicing opportunity.
P ETROL En gin e M ana gement //
The introduction of advanced technologies such as
gasoline direct injection (GDI), enabling a stratified
fuel charge combustion for improved efficiency,
has resulted in significantly more complex petrol
powered vehicles. Coupled with this, you only
need to look at the multi function displays on the
Not so long ago, braking, steering and suspension
were all separate un-integrated systems within a
vehicle. The technology behind these systems has
since evolved to create a single, all encompassing
system called ‘Unified Chassis Control’. The
introduction of reactive shock absorbers, steering
angle sensors and brake assist have all helped
to improve the safety, control and handling of
the vehicle. This means that chassis component
servicing can no longer be performed with just a
diagnostic tool. Steering racks that are electrically
driven will need to be re-calibrated after being fitted,
electric parking brakes need to be wound back, and
vehicles with air suspension will need the ‘service
mode’ selecting before maintenance.
Air
Co nditioning //
Air conditioning is no
longer considered a
luxury option. Fuelled
by drivers’ demand for
greater comfort and
convenience, it now
comes as standard
in most new cars.
15 years of successive
growth in system
fitment, and a rapidly
expanding parc, have
all contributed to a
strong air conditioning
market. And because
these systems need
regular maintenance
to be effective, the
requirement for
servicing and repair is
significant. Surprisingly
many garages still
outsource this work.
To tap into this lucrative
servicing opportunity,
technicians need to
be trained on the very
latest technology,
keep up to date with
regulation and have
access to the right
tools and parts. TT
As an original equipment manufacturer, Delphi is in a unique position to provide valuable knowledge
of the technology the market will see in vehicles today, tomorrow... and ten years down the road.

Reduce Comebacks
Part No. 1
Contamination caused
by rusted fuel lines
Were they worn
out or did they
fail for another
reason?
The answers to
these questions
are important
and without
them, an accurate
diagnosis is left
to chance.
This vehicle received two fuel modules in less than
a week. The complaint was noisy operation and
erratic fuel pressure. Both modules were analysed,
and found to have the fuel module bucket and
internal strainer heavily contaminated with rust.
The external strainers showed some discolouration,
but had significantly less rust in them. The cause
was a rusted return fuel line.
Part No. 2
External strainers of both parts show
discolouration, but very little rust contamination.
No significant amount of rust or contamination was
found in the fuel tank because the source of the
rust was the metal return line on the vehicle. The
rust that was deposited went directly into the fuel
module bucket, as the return line on this vehicle puts
fuel directly into the fuel module bucket, not the fuel
tank. Once the rust was deposited, it could not be
removed. The fuel filter was not able to catch the rust
because it was developing in the vehicle return line,
downstream of the fuel filter.
On both parts, rust was found inside
of bucket and on pump strainer.
Did You Know?
Delphi Fuel Pump
Failure Analysis
What can a failed part tell you?
A lot... It tells a story. Take the fuel pumps to the
right. These failed pumps were not a result of
incorrect testing. All tests performed were valid
and provided useful data for making a diagnosis,
but more could have been learned. Were they worn
out or did they fail for another reason? The answers
to these questions are important and without them,
an accurate diagnosis is left to chance, inviting
future problems for you and your customer.
A failed-part analysis should always be conducted
on failed fuel modules through close visual
examination and some simple disassembly.
Delphi aftermarket
pumps and modular
reservoir assemblies
are exact-fit OE
replacements.
Intermittent starts due to bad vehicle wiring
The vehicle shown below received three fuel modules over a five week
time period. In each instance the vehicle would not start. Sometimes
striking the bottom of the fuel tank would cause it to run.
All modules were analysed and failed due to a bad vehicle electrical
connector, which had not been replaced in all instances. All three
modules were damaged via a burnt fuel pump ground terminal. Although
damage is not extreme, it is significant enough to create repeat failures.
Avoid a potential customer comeback
with these simple steps.
First checkpoint //
Examine the electrical connectors closely and
look for evidence of terminal overheating, especially
at the terminals supplying current flow to the
fuel pump inside the module. Badly charred and
burnt terminals are easy to spot, but seemingly
undamaged connections should be checked more
P4
All three modules failed due to a burnt “C” terminal,
the ground path for the fuel pump.
Delphi’s Magazine for Automotive Technicians // Autumn 2010
closely for evidence of melting or bubbling
near the electrical terminals.
Any melting is an indication of excessive heating
due to a poor electrical connection caused by a
damaged vehicle body harness. If this type of
damage is found, poor pump performance will
occur due to this bad connection. The vehicle’s
electrical connector must be replaced or repeat
failures will occur.
Second check poi nt //
Examine the external strainer on the fuel module.
Look for signs of dirt and/or rust contamination.
Any form of dirt found in the strainer should
immediately trigger an inspection of the fuel
tank. A tank cleaning or replacement should be
conducted, based on what is found.
It is important to understand how contamination
entered the fuel tank, so preventative action can be
taken to eliminate future occurrences. Areas like the
tank vent system should be checked to determine
if contaminants entered through this area. If
determined contaminants were 'pumped' into the
tank or intentionally added, it’s important to change
fuel supplies or add a locking gas cap to the vehicle.
Thir d checkpo int //
Visually examine the fuel module bucket and
internal strainer. Depending on the module design,
you may be able to view the module bucket through
an opening in the fuel module design. If not, the
bucket may have to be removed from the fuel
module through disassembly. What is important to
note is what has accumulated in the fuel module
bucket and internal pump strainer. Contaminants
entering the fuel module bucket are indefinitely
trapped, so the bucket will contain a contamination
history of the fuel module.
A significant amount of contamination found in the
bucket and internal strainer is a sure sign that the
part failed due to contamination. This indicates that
there are other issues on the vehicle that need
addressing prior to the installation of a new fuel
module.
Analysis of actua l failure s //
Above are actual scenarios showing failed modules.
Since these issues were not identified during the
initial diagnosis, the results were repeat failures.
Upon such closer inspection, all the needed repairs
could have been made. More important, a
customer 'comeback' would have been avoided. TT

O2? OE!
Get Wide
How Refreshing
Coverage with New Delphi MAF Sensors
Did You Know?
As one of only four
OE manufacturers
of oxygen sensors,
Delphi has
manufactured more
than 250 million O2
sensors since 1974.
Delphi: A Leader in
Planar Technology
Nine New MAF Sensors Provide Coverage
for Over 600 Popular European Applications
As one of the leading suppliers of oxygen
sensors, Delphi planar technology is the
result of our OE and aftermarket engineers
partnering together to develop one of the
most innovative oxygen sensor programs
for the aftermarket.
Integral to the engine’s performance and efficiency,
the mass air flow (MAF) sensor measures the flow
and density of air into the combustion chamber.
The resulting voltage tells the vehicle computer to
adjust the injector pulse to change the amount of
fuel delivered.
Capitalising on our OE technology, we
developed a smarter solution with wider
aftermarket coverage for older and late
model applications. The oxygen sensors
are configured and designed to replace
previous conical sensor designs. In doing
so, Delphi has increased coverage, but
decreased SKUs. We call it intelligent SKU
management... a simpler way to repair.
Delphi MAF sensors are designed, engineered and
manufactured to exacting OE standards, delivering
accurate air flow measurements and enhanced
engine performance. And unlike other brands,

The rationalised range of nine MAF sensors covers
over 600 popular European applications including
Fiat Punto, VW Golf, Vauxhall/Opel Corsa and
Mazda 6. In consolidating the line, we are helping
distributors and garages to reduce their inventory
by stocking fewer part numbers. TT

Why Delphi Planar
Technology?
• L
eads the industry in contamination
resistance to silicone, phosphorous and
other fuel/oil additives due to its patented
protective sensor coating. Contaminated
sensors can trigger 'check engine lights' and
cause engines to run too rich, burning up to
25% in additional fuel, as well as sending
excess emissions into the atmosphere

As a leading manufacturer of OE diesel fuel injection
systems, Delphi knows just what it takes to keep
a diesel engine in optimum condition. Our Diesel+
fuel treatment, part number HAD100, is designed
to provide superior engine protection. Developed in
conjunction with Chevron, and incorporating the very
latest Texaco fuel technology, it enhances the fuel’s
ability to clean, protect and restore.
Delphi’s Diesel+
is a single dose,
fuel based
treatment which
is effective in the
vehicle’s fuel
system for up to
6 months.
Unlike many other fuel additives which are added
during each refuelling, Delphi’s Diesel+ is a single
dose, fuel based treatment which is effective
in the vehicle’s fuel system for up to 6 months,
safeguarding the system long after it is filled up.
The high strength formula is supplied in 350ml
bottles for single doses treating 50 to 70 litres
of fuel. This makes it an ideal product for garages.
By incorporating this as part of a standard service
regime, garages can offer an added value service
to their customers, whilst increasing their revenue
and profits. A win-win for both! TT
Diesel+ contains seven key elements to aid engine efficiency
and enhance injector life and effectiveness, including:
• A
n additional detergent to clean up injector
deposits. This helps to maintain the correct
spray patterns, improving fuel economy and
providing more power
• A
demulsifier to ensure clean phase
separation between water and fuel which
protects against filter blocking and water
contamination of the fuel delivery system
• A
lubricity agent to compensate for the
lower lubricity of some modern diesel fuels.
This reduces wear in the fuel pump resulting
in longer engine and pump life
• A
n anti-foam agent to prevent excessive
foaming during filling
• A
fuel stabiliser to prevent acid-base
reactions that can cause fuel instability.
This helps to ensure that the fuel operates at
maximum efficiency through to combustion
Delphi’s Diesel+
part number
HAD100, is
designed to
clean, protect
and restore.
• A
corrosion inhibitor to prevent rust which
can reduce engine performance and life
• A

Fuelled by Innovation!
Did You Know?
A robust, handheld unit, the tool
is designed to
provide workshops,
garages and
fleets with real
time analysis of
fuel content at an
affordable price.
Independent research
has shown that up to
80 percent of diesel
engine problems
stem from contaminated or poor
quality fuel.
A First for the Market with
Delphi’s New Fuel Analyser
Running vehicles on poor quality or contaminated
fuel can lead to performance issues such as filter
plugging, injector coking, piston ring sticking and
breaking. Such problems need to be identified
at the earliest possible opportunity in order to
minimise the risk of longer term damage to the
engine. Immediate and accurate analysis of the fuel
is therefore critical.
Using the new Delphi Fuel Analyser, part number
YDT553, technicians will be able to perform a
first level diagnostic to check if the fuel meets
the latest EN590 standard and identify potential
contamination problems. Similarly, commercial
vehicle fleets can use the tool to analyse the quality
of fuel before refuelling, reducing the risk of fuelrelated engine problems. Until now, the only option
has been to send samples to a specialist laboratory
for analysis, costing both time and money.
giving immediate and accurate results via a digital
display screen. The volume of fuel required to
undertake the analysis is only 46ml, which can be
retrieved from the fuel pump or filter. This will allow
technicians receiving only system components
to check the fuel, just as easily as those working
directly on the vehicle. With this data, the user can
quickly establish whether there is an unacceptable
amount of bio diesel or any impurities present that
may impact on the fuel injection system.
The complete fuel analyser kit from Delphi
includes a USB cable, a mains adapter, three 50ml
measuring tubes, a quickstart guide and a CD with
a user manual and reporting software. It is available
in 10 languages through our network of authorised
Delphi distributors and workshops. TT
A robust, hand-held unit, the tool provides

Volkswagen
Chooses Delphi Technology
to Develop the Polo BlueMotion –
Cleanest Car in it’s Class and
Voted 2010 World Car of the Year
Delphi Corp. and Volkswagen have
developed one of the 'greenest' diesel
systems ever produced with the new
3-cylinder VW Polo BlueMotion
After more than a year of co-development with
Volkswagen, Delphi is supplying its Multec® Diesel
Common Rail System for the new 1.2 litre, 3-cylinder
Volkswagen Polo BlueMotion. Voted 2010 World
Car of the Year, the result is a cleaner, greener car
that achieves record low CO2 emissions and fuel
consumption without compromising on performance.
In addition to Delphi’s Multec® Diesel
Common Rail system, the VW Polo BlueMotion
is fitted with a Delphi radiator, compressor
and antitheft and immobiliser systems.
Did You Know?
Delphi ’s Multec ® C ommon Rail
Sy stem // drivin g down emissio ns
A c loser look at
the DFP6 p ump //
Delphi’s Multec® Diesel Common Rail System, with
a balanced valve fast servo-solenoid injector, was
launched in 2000 and has since evolved to meet
changing emissions standards, while maintaining
cost and performance competitiveness.
Unveiled at the International Motor Symposium
in Vienna earlier this year, Delphi’s DFP6 single
plunger rail fuel pump is designed to simplify
packaging and reduce weight while providing 2,000
bar maximum rail pressure. The pump combines a
relatively small specific capacity of up to 0.42 cc/rev
with the capability to run at engine speed, allowing
it to be used on a range of engine sizes up to 2.2
litres. It features a new compact hydraulic head
design which helps to improve the volumetric and
mechanical efficiency, enabling a potential reduction
of engine CO2. The new concept is much stiffer
than the previous generation head, with Delphi’s
integrated inlet valve assembled directly into the
head and a forged high-pressure outlet, which
incorporates the outlet valve and helps to achieve
reduced stress.
The Common Rail system on VW Polo BlueMotion
includes the latest solenoid type diesel Common
Rail injector technology with Delphi’s next
generation DFP6 fuel pump. This combination
allows for just 87 g/km of CO2 emissions.
“Delphi’s new Common Rail system provides
significantly improved fuel delivery control,
extended multiple injection capability, enhanced
spray atomisation and air mixing,” said John Fuerst,
General Manager, Delphi Diesel Systems. “The
system in this vehicle can deliver up to six injection
events per combustion cycle, which translates into
a very smooth combustion process and therefore
lowers the NVH levels.”
Delphi…the company that makes the parts cars are born with.

The VW Polo
BlueMotion was
chosen as ‘2010
World Car of the
Year’ from a list of 30
entries nominated by
59 World Car jurors
from 25 countries.
The cars were judged
on merit, value,
safety, environment,
significance and
emotional appeal.
The DFP6 pump also features
an innovative roller and shoe
mechanism. The twin lobe cam
offers two pumping events per
revolution, reducing the number
of pump strokes needed. The
roller cam shoe mechanism has a
patented static shoe guide that has
been designed to reduce torque,

Diagnosing
Common Rail Diesel System Faults
By following a simple guide to diagnosing faults with
Common Rail diesel systems, garages can improve their
efficiency and open up a new and profitable revenue stream
The growth in the Common Rail diesel parc presents a great servicing opportunity for garages with the right equipment and knowledge.
However, to service these sophisticated systems effectively, efficiently and safely, garages should follow a few simple steps.
By replacing
individual
injectors rather
than a whole set,
garages can
save both time
and money.
Assess the fuel quali ty //
The first step for any garage should be to perform
an initial diagnostics on the quality of the fuel.
Delphi’s fuel analyser (part number YDT553) gives
garages the ability to measure the percentage of
bio diesel in the fuel and identify the presence of
impurities. This will enable the technician to confirm
whether fuel is the root cause of the problem.
Once the quality of the fuel has been established
further diagnostics will be required, to either assess
the component damage if fuel is the issue, or
pinpoint the fault if otherwise.
Ident ify the fault code //
The first stage in identifying a fault with a Common
Rail diesel system is to interrogate the vehicle’s On
Board Diagnostic (OBD) system. By using a good
quality all makes diagnostic tool such as Delphi’s
PDA based DS100E (part number SV10166) or laptop
based DS150E (part number SV10546), technicians
can identify the fault codes generated and then focus
their attention on this area of the vehicle.
Check the in jectors //
If the OBD system has generated a fuel injection
system fault code, the next item to be checked is
the injector’s functionality. Tools such as Delphi’s
Sealed Rail Diagnostic Kit (part number YDT278) can
be connected to the injectors, preventing the need
for a complete system removal and refit. As an
all-makes tool, the Sealed Rail Kit is compatible
with Common Rail systems from Delphi, Bosch,
Denso and Continental, reducing the need for
investment in multiple tools.
The back leakage equipment on the Sealed Rail
Kit collects and measures back leakage flow from
the injectors and indicates which injector may be
damaged or faulty and in need of replacement.
By replacing individual injectors rather than a whole
set, garages can save both time and money.
P16
Delphi’s Magazine for Automotive Technicians // Autumn 2010
C heck the C ommon Rail pu mp functi on //
Once the injectors have been checked, the functionality of the Common Rail
pump should be investigated. This time the Sealed Rail Kit is fitted directly
onto the high-pressure outlet pipe from the pump and the operator cranks the
engine to record pressure in the system. The Sealed Rail Kit displays the results
digitally and if the figure differs from the specified pressure measurement for
the vehicle application, the pump could be faulty.
C onfi rm if a mechani c al or el ectr i cal p ump fa ult //
If the Common Rail pump is suspected of being faulty, Delphi’s False Actuator Kit
(part number YDT410) should be used in conjunction with the Sealed Rail Kit for
further interrogation. The False Actuator Kit temporarily replaces the vehicle’s actuator
to enable the pump to generate full system pressure.
If the pump generates the correct pressure with the False Actuator in place, then the
vehicle actuator is likely to be at fault and should be replaced. However, if the pressure
is still below the required level when tested with the False Actuator, then the Common
Rail pump is likely to have a mechanical fault and should be repaired or replaced. TT

Delphi Aftermarket
Cool New Air Conditioning Program!
SP Compressors
Validated to
Meet or Exceed
OE Specifications
Unlike some
competitors in
the aftermarket,
Delphi has
a validation
and durability
test schedule
to ensure
our products
perform in the
most extreme
conditions
vehicles would
experience
worldwide.
When Delphi introduced its aftermarket SP
compressors earlier this year, the product line
was developed based on Delphi’s innovative SP
technology used by major OEMs worldwide.
But Delphi did more than bring Original Equipment
(OE) engineering and design expertise to the
aftermarket. It applied the same stringent validation,
testing and manufacturing processes it does to
every component it produces.
“Whether it’s engineered and designed for OE
production or an aftermarket application, every
Delphi part must adhere to the company’s global
technical requirements,” said Mark Shasteen, Vice
President, Global Service and Engineering, Delphi
Product & Service Solutions. All parts released for
the aftermarket undergo the same rigorous product
development processes including Production Part
Verification (PPV) and Production Part Approval
Process (PPAP) according to Shasteen.
The purpose of PPV is to confirm the part being
produced performs exactly as the prototype was
designed; and the purpose of the PPAP is to ensure
every part meets all of the requirements defined
in the engineering samples. What’s more, any
plant manufacturing a Delphi part must adhere to
all of Delphi’s manufacturing standards to include
performance, noise and durability testing.
“Unlike some competitors in the aftermarket,
Delphi has a validation and durability
test schedule to ensure our products perform
in the most extreme conditions vehicles would
experience worldwide,” said Shasteen.

Delphi is launching
105 new aftermarket
part numbers for air
conditioning systems,
including compact
variable compressors,
condensers and
blower motors.
More than a decade ago, Delphi created its
exclusive compressor life-cycle test based on data
from cars driving in real-world conditions, including
personal vehicles, taxi fleets and police fleets. After
recording the conditions the vehicle compressors
were exposed to, Delphi standardised its durability
test schedule, which is used for its OE and
aftermarket compressors.
Delphi’s SP compressors were tested to Delphi’s
durability requirements — which, in some cases,
are more stringent than those of the global OEMs
it serves — and met the demands of completing
the test without exhibiting excessive wear. Like
all products in Delphi’s aftermarket thermal line,
the compressors are designed to last a minimum
of 50,000 miles. The SP compressors also meet
the designated performance requirements and
exceed the Delphi requirement that calls for a noise
differential of less than 3 dB. In addition, Delphi’s SP
compressors underwent vehicle fit and leak testing
to ensure Delphi-caliber quality.
“Because of our 100 year OE heritage, this is the
way Delphi has always engineered, developed and
tested parts, which sets us apart from many of our
competitors in the aftermarket,” said Shasteen.
Delphi’s new compressors fit popular late-model
domestic and import applications, with coverage for
more than 13 million vehicles.
Since 1910, Delphi has brought heating and cooling
innovations to the automotive market, and remains
a leader in developing OE-quality solutions for
vehicle manufacturers and the aftermarket.
This includes the first automotive radiator in 1911,
the first car heater in 1929 and the first vehicle air
conditioner in 1954. TT
Did you know that…?
Delphi has a rich history as a supplier of OE
thermal technology to global car manufacturers.
Delphi supplies major HVAC systems with
Delphi compressors pumping refrigerant
through complex air conditioning systems for
the Ford Fusion, Mercury Milan, Toyota Tacoma,
Porsche Cayenne and Audi Q7, in addition to
a host of other OEMs around the world.
Delphi is launching 105 new aftermarket part
numbers for air conditioning systems, including
compact variable compressors (CVC),
condensers and blower motors. These will all
be listed in Delphi’s new 2010 European air
conditioning catalogue.
Delphi’s CVCs feature the very latest variable
displacement piston compressor technology.
Based on a swash plate simple harmonic
motion mechanism, they offer better fuel
economy, optimum integration, more fuelefficient air conditioning load management,
high speed operation and less noise and
vibration. The new OE compressors cover
popular late-model applications, including:
Volkswagen Golf 6, Polo 6, Passat 6, Renault/
Nissan Megane/ Gd Scenic, Koleos, Qashqai/
X-Trail, Modus; and Vauxhall/Opel Insignia.
“In addition to introducing the latest Delphi
OE compressors, we are also using Delphi’s
engineering capabilities and proven technology
to bring OE solutions to the aftermarket,” said
Marcelo Ganasevici, Global Product Line Director,
Independent Aftermarket, Delphi Product & Service
Solutions. “We are fitting our OE compressor to
a broader range of OE models to help deliver true
value by allowing the aftermarket customer to
gain access to our long Tier 1 OE supplier history,
technology and quality through an attractive
alternative to current product offerings.”
“All of these new compressors can be found in the

Endurance Test
Speed and endurance
come as standard
The two RCZs ran in the D1T category for diesel
cars between 1.7 litres and 2.0 litres. The key
change to the standard engine was an increase
in turbo boost pressure, lifting the torque from
340Nm to 400Nm and the power from 120kW to
150kW. Even with this extra boost, Peugeot used
production Delphi charge air coolers, as supplied
to road cars, as they met the performance targets
required for endurance racing.
“This event has been called the ultimate durability
test,” said John Fuerst, Delphi’s General Manager,
Diesel Engine Management Systems. “Delphi
successfully faced this test with production
products on the RCZs that needed little or no
modifications to perform in this gruelling race. We
are delighted to have been selected as a technical
partner for Peugeot and to have helped them
achieve such an impressive result in the company’s
200th anniversary year.”
Delphi helps Peugeot to victory
in ‘ultimate durability test’
Earlier this year, Delphi technology helped power
two Peugeot RCZs to an impressive first and third
in-class standing in a gruelling 24-hour endurance
race at the Nurburgring in Germany. The vehicles
were equipped with Delphi diesel fuel injection
systems and powertrain cooling technology, which
unlike many of the 197 other vehicles, had not
been highly modified for racing.
Peugeot had recently launched the RCZ 2.0 litre HDi
coupé to mark its 200th anniversary. For the 2010
race, the company took the decision to race models
that were largely unmodified from their road-going
equivalents – a powerful way of demonstrating the
reserves of performance and durability inherent in
their standard production vehicles.
Delphi’s production 2000 bar Common Rail system
with MultecTM balanced-valve fast servo-solenoid
injectors met the modified engines’ demands with
minimal revisions. Extensive trials established that
the only significant upgrade required was to change
the nozzle definition, optimising the spray pattern
to suit the increased swirl created by the higher
boost levels. The new configuration also increased
maximum fuel flow, contributing to the increase
in power and torque. The standard fuel pump was
retained without modification.
“For a race car to use a production ECU is a
particularly rare event but Delphi achieved this
as well,” said Fuerst. “Our technical specialists
modified the software of the standard ECU to allow
Peugeot to re-calibrate the engine mapping to suit
the demands of endurance racing with the re-tuned
engine. To meet the challenges of such a gruelling
race with systems that were originally designed for
road car applications is very satisfying for us and is
a clear indication of the quality of Delphi technology
and manufacturing.” TT
Delphi successfully faced this
test with production products
